After watching the first and second seasons of "Roma" intermittently and incompletely, what impressed me the most was the most unscrupulous Anthony in that chaotic world.
If people can be as arrogant as Anthony in this life, they can have no regrets. I'm talking about Anthony in HBO's "Roma", but according to Plutarch, Anthony gambled, drank heavily, and had sex with men and women in Rome in his early years, and owed 250 talents before he was 20 years old ( Equivalent to millions of dollars today). So in the TV series, he was in the house of Octavian, in front of Cicero, in the Senate, and in the Egyptian palace. It is also in line with his character. Character determines fate. Even if he does not meet Octavian, a political genius and extremely hypocritical, Anthony will eventually fail because his soul has been swallowed by desire. However, when Cleopatra was bewildered to the point of being half-awake, he asked his former lover Attia, "Does she still like to pose as before?", which is still moving. After the battle of Akexion, Anthony said, I have always been afraid of failure, but if I fail, I feel that it is not so terrible. The sun still rises and the water is still as sweet. Stop worrying about gains and losses, because there is nothing left to lose.

    Maybe I first saw the relationship between ice and fire. Rome is not as exciting as I expected, just like the naked beauty with smooth lines. You can’t just watch it. You want her to have some new tricks, but Rome didn’t give me new tricks. . The screenwriting was slightly weaker, and the first season ended disappointingly. Because of this drama's aversion to Octavian, I look forward to his confrontation with Anthony in the second season. Men grow up in blood and cock, and never irritate women.

Rome quotes

  • Atia of the Julii: [to Cleopatra] Die screaming, you pig spawn trollop.

  • Mark Antony: I really think you should reconsider.

    Gaius Julius Caesar: Anyone else, certainly. But those 2 - they found my golden standard and survived a storm that killed an army. Now they come face to face with Pompay Magnus. They have powerful Gods on their side. And I will never kill a man with such powerful friends.
